This model is a continuation of the tensile cable and column system from our reciprocal model. We built off of the same logic of triangulating cables as a means of a structural stability, only this time we stabilized columns and platforms. The columns are anchor points and the platforms are suspended from them. To achieve stability, additional cables are triangulated from the columns to the platforms and from the platforms to each other. In addition, two of the platforms are a structural system representative of a concrete slab and glass roof or, concrete slab and glass skywalk. The two different material planes are also held together by tensile cables.
